Results page for Minto Summer Skate is up. I haven't checked the schedule to see exactly how current it is, but there's quite a bit there already.

Julianne Seguin apparently skated very well in the short program, with a 3F and 3LZ combo. Hopefully she follows it up with a strong long program. She seems prepared for her JGP assignment. Alaine Chartrand, on the other hand, seems to be struggling with her jumps at the moment, although she still has a month to get them in order for the JGP at Lake Placid.

For reference, the schedule is here. The junior short programs have already taken place and are archived. Right now there are some juvenile competitions taking place, followed by some novice competions. The senior ladies short program starts at 9:15 local time (11:15 PM EST).

Unfortunately it looks like the senior free skates and junior womens' free skates tomorrow will be in an arena which will not be covered by the streaming. However, this is a great start at streaming from Alberta!

The detailed results for the men's long program are interesting. Could Andrei Rogozine be planning to start his program off with a quad? It certainly looks like it. A double salchow (or even a triple salchow) as the first jump isn't usual, but a doubled salchow as the result of a quad salchow attempt seems likely to me.

In any case, he skated very well, with seven clean triples including two triple Axels, one in combination with a triple toe.

Also the Souvenir Georges-Ethier competition is being held in Quebec this weekend. The event is being live-streamed and archived, with the links to the programs at the two ice sheets here. The first utream link is for rink #1 (glace 1) and the second link is for rink#2. Duhamel/Radford and Takahashi/Tran skated their short programs in rink #1 (first link). You have to scroll down past the senior women and men short programs to get to the pairs short programs.

What is happening with Natasha Purich. She skated Senior about a month ago. At Georges-Ethier she skated Junior with not great results. Has the puberty monster set in? Was the move to Quebec to train not a good idea?

Have a look at how she skated in the pairs long program and make your own assessment of how she is skating. Personally I'd say she's doing well. She landed both the 3T and the 3S in the long program,as well as a good throw 3S with a slight touchdown of the hand. On the pair elements they clearly still have a lot of work to do (their side-by-sdie pair spins were atrocious, for example), but she seems to me to be skating as well as she ever did. I think this pairing may end up being a positive thing for her, once they've had more time together.

ETA: According to tracings.net, her birthdate is June 5,1995 and his birthdate is in May 1994. I think that means they have two seasons of junior eligiblity left, but perhaps someone with more knowledge of these things can confirm that. If that's correct, though, then they have lots of time left to gel as a pair and improve their pair elements.

On another topic, results for two other regional competitions have been posted:

The Isabelle Henderson competition in the western Ontario section ran from September 21-23 in Paris, Ontario. The results are here. http://www.skating-wos.on.ca/results...rson/index.htm. In senior men Shaquille Davis had probably the best short program of his career (57 points, including a triple axel) but his long program was not as good (93 points). Is he still eligible for junior competition? His birthday is in August 1992. Madelyn Dunley, a sub for some of the JGP competitions and last season's novice champion, was skating in the junior women's competition.

The Sask Skate/Sask Open competition ran from September 28-30. Results for that competition are here. (Scroll down past the Prairie Skate results). To me one interesting entry was that of Garrett Gosselin in senior men (4th in junior men at Canadians in 2011. I was wondering if he had retired, since he didn't skate at sectionals, Challenge or Canadians last season, but it looks like he's back.
